I'm located in California and needed to work with a florist in Missouri to make floral arrangements. Laura Steube, floral designer (and I believe, owner), took my order with great interest. I lost a dear friend suddenly who was an avid NASCAR race fan. I wanted a race flag theme in the arrangement and asked Laura if she didn't have anything on hand if she wouldn't mind going to a party supply store and finding a race flag to stick in the bouquet or maybe a race flag balloon. She assured me that if she couldn't find anything from her suppliers she would make something to satisfy the theme. I had a friend of my family take a picture of my bouquet and email it to me after the memorial services and was elatedly surprised! Laura not only included 2 crossed race flags clip art on the card but also had handmade a black and white race flag ribbon using white satin and black rogaine ribbon weaved together with floral glue, then laced through the middle layer of the greenery in the bouquet, . It was very creative and tastefully done. It definitely made a statement of my late friend's favorite pastime and honored his memory perfectly. I highly recommend Belle Fleur to anyone who is in need of a serious floral designer who can "think outside of the box" and bring your floral statements to life! read more
